part IV.

well, well. here's the fourth part of my post-series. another question came up: why do i write in english? the answer is not that spectacular as you may have thought: i can reach more people, even those, who don't speak german. this might sound a bit odd, because this blog is especially made for munich, but almost every city in the western world has got their own little "elite". so maybe - no i'm pretty sure - this affects them, too.

i wanted to dedicate this part of the series to one special subject: love.
yes. you may know that feeling. i hope you know it. true love. i guess that everyone had that at least once in a lifetime and if not so, then it will sure happen one day. but what is the difference between an average relationship and this overwhelming feeling of true love, of complete dedication to another human being? and why do we settle for average relationships with people, just because they could possibly fit into our lifestyles? why don't we look out for or even believe anymore in true love?
the answer is very sad: we cannot handle true love, if we are looking for self-fulfillment. it makes us too confused, too psycho, too crazy...too weak. and someone who wants to achieve his dreams and life goals is not able to afford weakness. there is this kind of love out there, we know it. but we stopped looking for it since the day we got burned by his infernal flame. we stopped opening our hearts entirely. we barely open it, because we don't want to get burned anymore. we don't want this kind of uncontrollable feeling. it is not efficient. and god knows we have to be efficient as hell nowadays.
there are only a few people who are not scared of the consequences of being truly in love. or maybe they are scared, but they don't care, because they know: it is worth the suffering. pathos, that's the word for it. or as we say in germany: leidenschaft. it's so obvious, that you can read it in the word itself. no pathos without the willingness for suffering.

the elite is not willing for this kind of suffering. the elite has to be efficient. the elite has to seem to be perfect. true and deep feelings? don't expect that.
but as i've already said: there are a few exceptional cases. look out for them in your environment and take a leaf out of their books. these people are very, very brave.


part V is coming soon, take care...
